Well, in my opinion there is a durational difference concerning the two that makes it difficult to choose the former or the latter. I believe ‘revolution’ is a fundamental change in political or organizational structures that takes place in a relatively short period of time while ‘revelation’ is the revealing of some form of truth or knowledge in even shorter time, it’s instant. Maybe one can build up towards a revelation but not in the same way things boils up to a revolution. But I see a connection between revolution concerning the population, the masses, and revelation regarding the personal, private sphere. This is my opinion.

Do you believe in the position of the artist without artworks?

Can you mention one film/movie scene that you learnt a lot from, that is important with regards to your own filmmaking, and why is it so?

A: Hannah -> Istvan
I think what I learnt most from is from reading about different movies and different ways their creators worked to create certain material.
And then I usually imagine the result in my head.
Often my idea of it is very different than when I see the actual result.
I think things that has been important to me lately was for example reading about the way Fredrick Wiseman works, staying in a place for a long period of time, just following with the camera, without any idea what the result will be like, just an intention trying to understand something. Not having an answer from the beginning.
Or Apichatpong Weerasethakul and his way of talking about time, and the moment in now, and the way we perceive the world and narratives in relation to this. Or Chantal Akerman. Or when Elisabeth Povinelli speaks about trying to film non-hierchally, putting an equal focus to everything in the picture. The sea as much as the canoe as much as the people sitting in it. I find it fascinating.
So it is the idea of it, or the ideas behind it, together, that interests me. I can not mention just one movie, i’m afraid.

Q: David -> Istvan
Once you told me that you’ve kept thinking of the swedish word bearbeta since it was mentioned in one of our discussions. Why is that and how does it function for you?

A: Istvan -> David
I think the Swedish word appears to me more ambivalent, multi-layered than its possible English translation; maybe this is one of the reasons. To process, to shape, form, or improve a material, where the material can be also memories, traumas and emotions connected to them. It is an interesting area, where work (in a narrow sense) gets blended with the immaterial, emotional and abstract. How does it function for me? I am working on it…

Q: Magne -> Øystein
I see you like working with metals, but do you like heavy metal music?

A: Øystein -> Magne
Few things make me feel more high than welding while listening to Dave Mustain, to, say, Prince of Darkness or Angry Again. It is the heat and the beat that pumps the blood so hard that you hear it rushing through the ear, the insane voice that force a focus and the dark sub-text that makes me feel at home in the dirt…

Q: Øystein -> Eirik
If you could choose, which art-piece would you destroy and why would you do it?

A: Magne -> Kachun
Blood and death are waiting like a raven in the sky
I was born to die
Hear me while I live
As I look into your eyes
None shall hear a lie
Power and dominion are taken by the will
By divine right hail and kill

Jeg tar ikke karrierevalg, og jeg er ikke kunstner
